Debugger usage has been non-monotonic with time for me. When I first started coding I would print. Then I discovered debuggers and experienced a massive improvement in productivity on bug fixing and problem solving tasks. But over time I found myself reaching for the debugger less and less often as I became better at solving problems. In the last 5 years I have to admit I've barely used debuggers at all.
